Beyond Fest is back with a bang, revealing an extensive slate of 2021 programming for the event that returns to theaters for 10 days of cinematic excess from Wednesday, September 29th thru Monday, October 11th.
They’re also not only holding a Bloody Disgusting day to celebrate our 20th anniversary with special screenings of You’re Next, Freddy vs. Jason, and Evil Dead (2013) uncut, but they’ll also be presenting the West Coast Premiere of Studio71 and Bloody Disgusting’s V/H/S/94 ahead of its Shudder arrival on Oct. 6 and a special rare 35mm screening of the very first V/H/S (2012), which was also produced by Roxanne Benjamin (V/H/S/2, Southbound, Body at Brighton Rock) and featured segments from Adam Wingard (Godzilla vs. Kong, You’re Next), Radio Silence (Ready or Not, Scream), David Bruckner (The Night House, The Ritual, Hellraiser), Ti West (The Roost, The House of the Devil, The Innkeepers), Joe Swanberg (You’re Next) and Glenn McQuaid (I Sell the Dead).
There will be a plethora of guests in attendance from both films.
In V/H/S/94, after the discovery of a mysterious VHS tape, a brutish police swat team launch a high-intensity raid on a remote warehouse, only to discover a sinister cult compound whose collection of pre-recorded material uncovers a nightmarish conspiracy.

Tickets will be on sale via Eventbrite on September 17th at 10 AM PST. Visit BeyondFest.com and the American Cinematheque for details.
